The publisher today announced, during an earnings call, the first bit of information about the series: a release date of October 30th, and nothing more. For fans, moving on from Ezio means a huge step in the series which, according to less gentle critics, has stagnated. Despite two semi-sequels to Assassin’s Creed 2, the latest in the series, Assassin’s Creed Revelations sold 7 million units and was the 7th best selling title in calendar year 2011.

As a huge fan of the series, I’m eager to see where (and when) Ubisoft takes us next. Until we know more, we’ll just have to resquiescat in pace.

Ubisoft killed it. 1 was brilliant. 2 Was a great sequel. BroHood was really just a rebadged #2. I didn’t even get Revelations, and now really, screw it. I’m sick of Ubi and their “CoD”-ing of Assassins Creed. And fuck their DRM.

#1 and #2 were great. Brohood felt like it could have been held off a bit longer and had a bit more innovation. Series just got stale fast thanks to them spamming the games out now.

Brotherhood is the most intellectual entry in the series. It’s a video game version of The Prince.

Assassin’s Creed has been my favorite game since I played the original.
But there’s no way that the next is going to be any good with so little development time.

Self correction: Found out since that they’ve been working on it since AC2. So they may actually have had enough time to get the changes they need right.

They have been working on the AC:III for like three years now. You really think they would or could do it all in a year? It’s been in progress since AC:II
